Reduced tuition and scholarships
- The school operates a fee-reduction programme with multiple income bands for Grades 1–10 and Grades 6–10 reduced-tuition levels; amounts vary by family income. Example reduced monthly rates (Primary G1–5): EUR 898, EUR 601, EUR 378, EUR 154 depending on income thresholds; (Secondary G6–10) examples include EUR 1,042, EUR 687, EUR 421, EUR 154 depending on income thresholds.

Scholarships for Grade 1–10 and for IB Diploma years are available by confidential application and are decided by the school's scholarship committee.

Billing schedule and payment terms
- Tuition and the monthly optional charges are billed in 12 equal monthly instalments and are due on the first day of each month. Lunch and after-school care costs are divided by 12 and charged monthly, including during school holiday months.
- Regular monthly tuition and optional monthly fees are payable by direct debit from the parents' or guardians' German bank account. Invoices are used for certain external charges (for example external examination fees).
- Handling and rejection: a handling fee of EUR 10 is charged for each rejected direct debit in addition to the bank's rejection fee. If direct debits are rejected three times within a school year, the school may require semester-by-semester prepayments with immediate effect.
- The school publishes an annual tuition and fees schedule in advance of the following academic year. The academic year runs from 1 August to 31 July.

Payment methods and bank details (fee payments and one-time fees)
- Ongoing monthly tuition and optional fees: payable by direct debit from a German bank account.
- Registration and Joining Fees: payable by bank transfer to the school's account (bank name, IBAN and SWIFT/BIC are provided in the admissions paperwork and in the school's admissions instructions). Example bank details used for fee transfers are associated with Taunus Sparkasse (IBAN: DE74512500000000326666; SWIFT-BIC: HELADEF1TSK) for the payment of Registration and Joining Fees. External examination fees and other invoices are normally paid by bank transfer on invoice. No regular acceptance of credit-card payments for monthly tuition is stated.

- Late enrolment schedule (percentage of annual tuition payable when joining after the school year start):
- August: 100% payable
- September: 100% payable
- October: 95% payable
- November: 85% payable
- December: 75% payable
- January: 65% payable
- February: 55% payable

- For students leaving at the end of the academic year, notice must be given by 31 March prior to the end of the academic year. If notice is given between 1 April and 31 July, the early-termination table applies plus 25% of the following school year's tuition in specified contract situations. If a new student signs a school contract but terminates it before starting, a payment of 25% of the following year's tuition is due. These notice and termination conditions determine any refundable or payable balance when a student departs.

Other costs and regular extras
- External examination fees (charged by external examining bodies and invoiced to families): approximate amounts for the year include IGCSE exam fees ~EUR 110 per subject (Coordinated Science billed ~EUR 220) and IB Diploma fees with a registration component and per-subject charges (for example approximate registration and per-subject amounts are set out for the IB Diploma). Families may be eligible for confidential school funding for examination or book costs in specific financial-need cases.
- Day-school trips and excursions are included in the tuition up to EUR 50 per student per year; any costs beyond that will be charged separately. Overnight school-trip costs vary by trip.
- Books: the school provides school books for Early Years, Primary and Secondary except for Grades 11 and 12, where families are given a book list and ordering options. If required, families in Grades 11 and 12 may apply for confidential school funding for books.
- After-school care late pickup fee: EUR 10 for every 5 minutes beyond official closing time and EUR 25 for every 10 minutes after 18:00; charged by direct debit at month end.
- Ad-hoc afterschool care (occasional use): EUR 25 per day or EUR 100 per week. Afterschool-club fees are payable per semester or quarter depending on the activity.

Boarding
- Boarding is not applicable. Metropolitan School Frankfurt operates as a day school with stated opening and after-school-care hours; no boarding fees apply.

Refunds and adjustments
- Refunds and adjustments are governed by the termination and late-enrolment schedules above and by the contractual notice requirements; specific refundable amounts (if any) are determined by the termination month percentages and by the contract clauses that apply to each enrolment. Handling fees for rejected direct debits and any charged external fees are not refundable where stated by the school's payment terms. Families seeking fee reductions or assistance must follow the school's fee-reduction or scholarship application procedures.
